Now in its fourth year, the Kennebunk-Kennebunkport-Arundel Chamber of Commerce in conjunction with its member businesses is hosting LAUNCH! A Maritime Festival.

The five-day festival set for June 12-16 will feature events throughout our three towns that celebrate all things maritime for which this area is so well known: a boat launch, a Sailors & Sirens 5K road race, historical tours (inside and out) and a chef cook-off, capped off by a summer lobster bake on the water complete with live music, Rock the Dock party and the Riverlights Boat Parade. A Blessing of the Fleet ceremony will close out the weekend.
